I have been a photographer on and off for many years. After an off period, I started this photo blog, with the goal of taking one photo per day as a way to set a goal and create structured time for creativity every day. The goal has transformed over the last year, so that now I post a thematically daily.

Most of my photographs remove details from context so as to present them anew. I feel a sense of contentment while walking, watching the cycles of the seasons, pausing to capture patterns or creating a still life. I enjoy looking closely at the detail and underlying structure to find beauty in the ordinary. This is where I find peace in my life.

Hi 🙂 I live in Boston and I think your images are gorgeous and I like the idea behind this blog. My girlfriend went to school for photography and is teaching me, very slowly, the ins and outs of it all. I love it. I look forward to more of your posts!

fantastic photography, a subject after my own heart, have you come across a site called Blipfoto, it hosts a comunity devoted to a photo a day, thought you might be interested, keep up the fabulous work.

I have now had a look at your blog and photos. You were right, we often shoot the same kind of subjects and looking at your pictures made me very happy and I really like your work. I will probably come back here often. By the way, do you mind if I link to your blog?

I found yor blog through Dave “the lazy photographer” and I’m really impressed.
I added it to my blogroll, so that I will closely follow the developements of your exquisite imagery.
Please feel free to drop by my blog: I would love to hear from you as well. http://maurometallo.wordpress.com/
Keep up the good work.See you around.

So you find peace via walking and photographing. In contrast, I get very excited when photographing. It is very stimulating to my body,mind and spirit. BUT, afterwards, then comes the peace. Hmm. Shanti Om to you, Lynn.

i’m not a professional photographer or critic or something. But just as a viewer, after roaming through your wonderful photoblog, it seemed to me that you have a special kind of rhythm in your photography. I liked your compositions. Respect.

One can sell on redbubble and they do the printing, framing and shipping. It’s also a different community, that originated in Australia, then Europe, then the US. I think your ‘scapes’ would do well on redbubble.

You don’t need to worry about the size or format of your images. If they are not large enough files, then they cannot make poster size prints – that’s all. I look forward to seeing your page once it is set up.

I completely agree with your view of photography! I often find myself walking around and looking at things through an imaginary frame and just selecting details and extracting them from their context.
Great blog!

Thanks for stopping by at Postcard Cafe and for your kind comments. I was really pleased to discover your blog and although a lot of your photography is very different from my own there are areas of shared interest and I really like that it’s a daily blog. Great work. I’ve added links on both my blogs. Your friend may also be interested in http://steelcitystatic.wordpress.com which is dedicated to all things small in Sheffield! I’ve just given the site an overhhaul and dressed it in a new theme. I’m attempting to make it a daily blog… Time will tell but so far so good. I’ve subscribed to your blog and will enjoy my daily emails. Keep up the great work. Thanks and Best wishes, Nigel.

Yes, it’s great to discover new sites and people who are so inspiring.
I’m impressed with your commitment to photography and to your daily blogging. You’ve a great eye for detail and for seeing beauty in places that many would pass by without a second glance. In a world that is spinning too fast we all need to slow down from time to time. Your blog is a great reminder of the things we so often miss and the importance of pausing to see what’s in front of us. Thanks.

I continue to enjoy your blog. I notice that in your tags you note a few different cameras. May I ask do you always shoot with your Canon SLR or do you also use a compact? I’m a great believer that it’s the person behind the camera that makes the shot but decent cameras can help to deliver what you hope to capture. Thanks…

Hi Lynn, Hope all is well. I noticed that you “liked” my post about Nick Hunter the woodcarver and I thought you may be interested that he has today set up a wordpress blog (with a little encouragement from me). If you are interested to see/follow his site he is here: http://nickhunterwoodcarver.wordpress.com/ I mentioned to him that since being on wordpress I had found some inspiring blogs – Yours being one that came to mind! Keep up your brilliant work. Best wishes, N 🙂

Hi Lynn, Just a quick note to let you know I have today launched my third blog!!! It will take time for the content to build so it is early days. I’ve put a few posts up today so that it appears a bit more established but I don’t intend to make it a daily blog so I’m not going to over stretch myself. If you fancy taking a look it is here: http://shopfrontsofsheffield.com/
The wordpress Mixfolio theme works really well and gives a nice clean look overall. I like that when you click onto the thumbnail images you get a large image plus tabs for comments and info like a proper website!
You can delete this from your comments column after you read it because it doesn’t really relate to your site. I just thought you might like to see my latest small corner of the internet! Best wishes, N 🙂

Beautiful work, Lynn. I use digital photography and digital drawing elements in my work also. You seem to have an innate sensitivity to your photography. I particularly like your recent posts comparing the abstracted front image w/ the blurred nature backdrops. Cheers from New Jersey! -Patricia
